hsmenableimmediatemigrate
The hsmenableimmediatemigrate option determines if files that are less than 2 minutes old can be migrated during selective migration.
When a file is created, file status information can take some time to become synchronized among IBM® Storage Scale nodes. If you create a file, then migrate the file before file information is synchronized, the file size information returned from a dsmdu or dsmdf command can be inaccurate. Because of the typical time needed for IBM Storage Scale synchronization, by default the space management client does not migrate a file that is less than 2 minutes old.
To migrate files that are less than 2 minutes old, set hsmenableimmediatemigrate=YES. When you set hsmenableimmediatemigrate=YES, the space management client issues system synchronization commands before migrating each file that is less than 2 minutes old.
This option applies only during selective migration.
